Yeah, I think the 11g they put on the proofs is probably just a standard weight back from the leaded days (though most leaded 39mm are under 11g).
The star chips are similar weights to the JACKs, with the lightest I know of being the ES $25 at 8.1g

I also noticed the ES$25 to be super light

Color relates to weight.. brighter (fluorescent) colors in general seem to weigh less.. most likely due to the composition to achieve the colors.
So the Day Green base color of the ES $25 chip is the reason for the lighter weight.
For example the JACK $25s are the same base color (Munzell Green) and I suspect the somewhat large hot pink edgespots on the JACK $25 sec is contributing to the slightly lighter weight relative to the $25 pri

How close is day green to munzell green? I just noticed the jack 25 is the same base as my Tonkawa 25

Thanks softchewy.
I was hoping these would all be closer to 9.5g though . I woulda gone nuts if they really were 11g!!
Oh well

Not too far off, but depends on lighting.

Bright Daylight - Top to bottom:
Dark Green (I believe - it's a HS Cleveland $25 sec so someone correct me if I'm wrong)
Munzell Green
Munzell Green
Day Green
Sherbet Green (Siena NCV 25)

Shadow daylight - Top to bottom:
Munzell Green
Munzell Green
Day Green
Sherbet Green (Siena NCV 25)

Shadow daylight - Day Green sandwiched between Munzell

@softchewy : The bottom chips looks to me more like a Sherbet Green than an Indian Blue, Paul.

Is that a GPI sample color chip?

It's a Siena 25 NCV.. I was told it was Indian Blue, but could definitely be Sherbet Green..
Definitely looks like a bright green to me
Know of any other chips with Indian Blue in them?

I believe the Empress Star Secondary Tourney T25K is Indian Blue.

A quick pick to see how Jack colors compare to some others I had.
I did not originally care for the reds and greens from the proof. What a dope I was.

Can you do me a favour and take a pic with the Cleveland secondary $500 with the $5, sec $25 and pri $100? Can you also take a pic of a couple $500 mixed into a barrel of $100, and a couple $100s in a stack of $500s?

I have 3 barrels of $500 Cleve secondary waiting for labels.

Thanks
Grant

Has anyone (dont throw anything) oiled any of these chips to see how these colours pop?

Based on that picture, I'm pretty confident it's Sherbet Green.

Same here. Pale Green (Aurora Star T25s) is pretty awesome too.

Has anyone started creating artwork for a Dealer Button for Jacks casino ?

Thank you! What is your opinion on using the cleve sec as $500 based on having them there on hand?

looks great ... maybe a tiny bit worse for dirty stacks but don't think it would stop me from using them.
Hard to tell until you play for real under crappy lighting. All in all I say thumbs up.

yep, defintely Sherbet Green (I have an ES T25 here)

Nice pics everyone! Thinking of getting a small set. Most of the chips look phenomenal in racks, but could somebody take a picture of a rack consisting of 50 secondary 25s and 50 primary 100s. I'd like to know if I can live with a mixed rack like that

I posted the $25 primary too for you.

i told someone earlier that the Secondary $25s look better with the $5s...and the Primary $25s look better with the Primary $100s

Another option.

Do you have a picture showing both $25 barrels with a barrel of the $5s, Gary?

Thanks, mate! Fantastic chips, indeed.

 

[chipinla]

Can anyone share a couple pics of the primary 25s, secondary 100s and secondary 500s all together please?

 

[WedgeRock]

@Boother36 brought out a sample set last night, and @Sprouty brought out a small set. Chips are amazing in person.

Thanks for all the chip pron, boys.
